Charge more to tune a Steinway?

[John Ross]

What lubricant do you use?
I tried Goose Juice and Protek, without a noticeable difference.
Uprights I am talking about.

  Julie,

                  I used to until I started putting a little drop of lubricant on each metal to metal string bearing surface. Now they tune quite nicely in a "normal" amount of time which equals about 45 minutes for me.

  Greetings,

   

            Does anyone else out there feel that you need more time to tune Steinways? Is it just me or what? I am thinking of charging alittle more to tune them. I have been tuning for 5 years.
